Desarrollo de un aplicativo web basado en inteligencia artificial utilizando el modelo transformers para detectar las emociones de los estudiantes de la Universidad Politécnica Salesiana Sede Quito Campus Sur

Abstract

The development of this project presents several significant reasons. First, its objective is to promote mental health care and seeking help from a health professional. Through the creation of technological tools that allow early identification of possible emotional or mental health problems. By analyzing the emotional nature of texts, a deeper understanding of the emotional state of students is gained. Mental health is an integral part of our overall health and seeking professional help is a smart and courageous decision to improve our emotional well-being. It is important to note that this article does not seek to replace or belittle the work of mental health professionals, especially psychologists. However, it is recognized that, due to the stigmas and prejudices associated with mental health care, many people avoid seeing these professionals. Considering that people spend on average around 3 hours a day on their cell phones and in the face of the rise of artificial intelligence, it has been decided to take advantage of these circumstances. This approach is particularly relevant in the context of the pandemic.
